Mallayer / 14930

This Mallayer antique rug measures 10' 4" x 24' 10" and carries a richly layered field of small floral repeats, framed by a formal border system and anchored by a long central medallion. The palette moves between red, pink, neutral, and deep navy accents, giving the composition warmth and depth. Areas of visible wear have softened the drawing, while the pattern remains legible and expressive. Circa 1900 - 1925, it reflects the character of a well-aged wool rug with a balanced mix of ornament and restraint. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
